2017

In May we organised a CRA specialised course in adjunction to the SETAC meeting in Brussels "Evaluation of ecotoxicity and degradation studies for use in environmental risk assessment of chemicals"

We organised two webinars on April 24 and 25, 2017, to present the SciRAP online platform and approaches for evaluating toxicity and ecotoxicity studies for hazard and risk assessment.

  • Webinar 1: “Applying the CRED criteria for evaluating reliability and relevance of ecotoxicity studies for regulatory assessment”.  Download a pdf of the presentation here. Watch the Adobe Connect recording of Webinar 1 here.
  • Webinar 2“Using the SciRAP tool to evaluate reliability and relevance of in vivo toxicity studies for regulatory assessment”. Download a pdf of the presentation here. Watch the Adobe Connect recording of the Webinar 2 here.

In November 2016 we organized the workshop ”Bridging the gap between academic research and chemicals regulation - the SciRAP tool for evaluating toxicity and ecotoxicity data for risk assessment of chemicals”. Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm. The workshop report can be found here.

In May 2016 we organized the session "Improving the usability of ecotoxicology in regulatory decision-making: findings from a SETAC Pellston Workshop" at the SETAC Europe meeting in Nantes. 

 

2015
